Down yonder a reader asks concerning robotic lawnmowers that automatically cut people’s grass:
"Isn’t that dangerous? What if there are kids in the neighbourhood?"
It might well be. I don’t know what kind of safety precautions these things have or what laws there may be concerning where they can be used.
However, here’s an even more amazing lawnmower engineering thingie (cowboy hat tip: Southern Appeal).
It’s called the Sky Cutter, and you can order your own kit to make one remarkably inexpensively.
For the record, this isn’t a lawnmower that has been rejiggered to fly. It’s a model airplane that has been rejiggered to look like a lawnmower, one of a number of novelty model aircraft produced by FlyingThingZ.Com.
Most amazing is a film of the Sky Cutter in action–set to the tune of Cotton-Eyed Joe. As they put it at Southern Appeal: "Pure (Redneck) Genius"!
YEE-HAW!!!
